LAByrinth Theatre Company presents the world premiere of Thinner Than Water, a new play by Melissa Ross with direction by LAB co-artistic director Mimi O’Donnell. Martin is debt ridden, gambling addicted, pissed as hell, and dying. Unfortunately his three estranged children couldn’t care less. Instead they argue with each other and everyone around them in a desperate struggle to do the right thing and mend their rapidly deteriorating lives. As the world around them crumbles, they are each surprised to discover family in unexpected places. Whether a spouse, a friend, or a chance encounter with a random stranger blood is often Thinner Than Water.
